Colin Quinn is the godfather of the modern NYC comedy scene. He's been simultaneously tearing down and rebuilding comics there for 20-30 years and he gets no credit for being a mentor to pretty much half the headliners out there now.
"Sometimes you get playful and people are not in the mood. I've been there. I've been on the other side of it myself, so, I understand if people want to stab me right now, I get it." I love Colin.
@@AMpufnstuf hes always mumbly. This is colin Quinn tho. He doesn't give a fuck about the audience, the host or anyone... he took over the show and did what hes comfortable doing. I loved it
I love how awkward Colin gets on these late night shows. Its the same as Patrice was, and how they both were on Tough Crowd; being real, but self destructive around the showbiz vibe. You can see him thinking “what am I going to do once I pull out this metro card?”
This is fucking hilarious. I love Colin Quinn. He does some of the best "deconstruction of comedy" type comedy of anyone (John Mulaney also comes to mind). Which is why most people are bewildered by him. He enjoys messing with Fallon as is plainly obvious here, but also obvious is the love between a mentor and a mentee that they share. Unrelated note: He used to eat every once in a while at the old diner I often had lunch in on 12th St and Union Square, until it (like most old diners in Manhattan) closed down. Never got the nerve to tell him I liked him on Weekend Update, and then the place was gone. But it's good to see him back in form.
@@carrrexx7190 alive OR dead, you my guy are funny as fuck. Lol, i bet The God Patrice said something that hit a nerve in your weak body. Amazing that he can still trigger soft emotion filled, vanilla face, snowflake colonizers....like yourself from, the Ethereal Plains of the Fields of Elysium Might i suggest you take a long walk off a short bridge!!!
@@mattmurray517 they ruined Norm's show too, but not after removing the old great ones from netflix and bringing on some women actors onto the new show.
He wasn't on all the time. Think he got on there because of Colin or something. It's too bad we can't get a full reunion as Ken Ober died 10 years ago...that would have been an awesome Fallon skit.
I'd love that. Jimmy was there during one of the SNL golden eras. Tina Fey? Amy Poehler? Will Ferrell? Rachel Dratch? Seth Meyers? That would be great!
8:01 "Can you tell us what this play is about? Oh, yeah. On a serious comic note... [Laughing] ..." Was waiting for Bradly Cooper Can't Stop Laughing sequel... :D Almost there LOL
Colin Quinn moves his off-Broadway comedy to CNN on Memorial Day, confirming that appearance marketing is a malignancy that even a fifty-nine-year-old comedian cannot excape from, as hair dye appears as his second banana, and is a very necessary element in his comedy, never shall he appear without some…
A bit concerning that an interview with one of the funniest men alive gets 30,000 views, while all the other interviews from this channel with talentless bums hit a mil. Perhaps I’m reading too far into it, but smart craft and talent mean little these days. Edit: I typed this immediately as I clicked on the video, and didn’t realize someone made this point more concisely. Though I’m glad I’m not the only one
He made Jimmy pop open like a fortune cookie, real authentic and the fake laughter reduced to 50/50 genuine and somewhat improvised. Not an easy task to do and Jimmy remains fake with at least 90-98% of his guests but this guy opened up a decent conversation and he got 15 minutes. Well done dude and Jimmy try to be like this authentic and stop laughing for 2 seconds and try to be serious right away, looks so fake.
I ve never gotten really into colin quinn (cause he is too smart and political for me) but he knows his basketball so i might have to give him another chance
This is the first time I’ve truly enjoyed an interview on Fallon’s Tonight Show.
Colin Quinn is the godfather of the modern NYC comedy scene. He's been simultaneously tearing down and rebuilding comics there for 20-30 years and he gets no credit for being a mentor to pretty much half the headliners out there now.
Tough Crowd is one of the best TV shows ever!
@@Harvinator24 hope they bring it back
Essa's World he should pitch it to Netflix or sumthing :)
Quinn and Attell forsure
Colin would "simultaneously" thank you for saying that and rightfully excoriate you for drawing attention to any perceived lack of "credit."
Glad you pulled through, Mushmouth.
Colin is getting the real jimmy out. Im pretty sure this was almost them backstage shooting the shit.
exactly, he's done it to Jimmy other times too.
Rich Vos will be performing tomorrow the 1st of February at the Comedy Works in Saratoga Springs, NY. Get your tickets now
Awesome
"Sometimes you get playful and people are not in the mood. I've been there. I've been on the other side of it myself, so, I understand if people want to stab me right now, I get it."
I love Colin.
"So what's up with this new show, chief?" collin is gold
Colin Quinn is too smart for this audience.
That is why Tough Crowd was underappreciated in its time.
Stupid Colin shouldn’t be whipping out Joel Grey references
true but it didn't help that this was his most off topic mumbly shit appearance ever
@@AMpufnstuf hes always mumbly. This is colin Quinn tho. He doesn't give a fuck about the audience, the host or anyone... he took over the show and did what hes comfortable doing. I loved it
Luke Mulford the one louder lady got it all you can hear her
I love how awkward Colin gets on these late night shows. Its the same as Patrice was, and how they both were on Tough Crowd; being real, but self destructive around the showbiz vibe.

Patrice on fallon with Qwest being the only one howling with laughter is one of my favorite videos on youtube.
Wow, I stopped watching the Fallon show for a while but this was a hilarious back n forth, and that trick at the end... perfect ending.
This type of interviews is my favorite. Looks like they insult each other but in reality they're just two genuine and funny people. Really great!
Are you Jimmy Fallon?
Got to open for Colin last year. He's hilarious, one of the most respected comics in the business, and the nicest guy you'll ever meet.
That's a dream! Lucky dude
You also beat Nick Mullen in a roast battle which is not an easy feat!
I do loved his statement about freedom of speech being acoustic and not electric. Loved it. "How long do we have to sit there?" Lol
One of my favourite ever interviews on Fallon, they were both having a blast

He's got that casual confidence to say anything that comes to mind, and is funny enough to pull it off, like Don Rickles.

Did Colin frequent the restaurant during his corpulent years?
@@PrivateAckbar This would have been 2010-2011... unfortunately I never got a great enough look at him to know.
Douche face, no one cares. You black, be a man and recognize.
Colin is a god damned legend
6:25 the silence after that 💣 was awesome
Jimmy is really only genuine when he’s got his old SNL buddies on
Carr Rexx he said genuine, at least we know you’re no genius
That's the type of interview we want. Perfect! LOL
This is the most relaxed I've seen jimmy. He should have Colin as a guest more often
RIP PATRICE O'NEAL !!!!!!!
ya boy didnt even watch the video i just had to make sure yall dont forget the King.
Dead or alive, he wasn't funny.
@@carrrexx7190

@Sacred Raisin Cakes You're so kind. Wow, Maybe I should check what I wrote?.....Nah!
@Justin Zhao
Blessings!✊🏿
Tough Crowd
shy shy netflix wont do it. They’d ruin it anyway
@@mattmurray517 they ruined Norm's show too, but not after removing the old great ones from netflix and bringing on some women actors onto the new show.
Colin should be a national treasure
he is
the way colin's expression changes when jimmy asks him 2+2, 4+4... is the best depiction of what kind of a person he is.. just funny and totally nuts
Came back to this a year later just to hear Colin say "Now I'm the good guy, and you're (POINT) the villain"
still waiting for the roadtrip with bobo!!
There's this restaurant on long island where everything is cows
"How long do we have to sit there?"
I don't usually laugh at Fallon, but that was a good one.
HILARIOUS! Have Colin as a guest every week! 😁
Comedy legend! His too funny and talented for Jimmy Fallon audience.
COLIN SHOULD COME ONCE A WEEK...!!!!! So GOOD....!!!!! Very FUNNY.....!!!!
Colin totally schooled jimmy lol but he saw jimmy was nervous and cooled off
CQ never disappoints!!!!!!!!!! IDGAC
just loved the fact that the Guest actually talked more than Fallon...
this guy is good!
More of Colin please.
"Less propaganda during the cultural revolution".
One of the most underrated comics of our time
Jimmy was great colin brought the gold
CQ is the man
No one does anger transformed into irony better than CQ.
More extended interviews. Please!!!
Jimmy is also really on form with Colin, gotta give him credit as well.
I ordered his special "Long Story Short" on DVD from Amazon because those bastards at Netflix pulled it. Funny as it gets. I highly recommend it.
Brilliant guy.
They are great together! Holy crap
I love this interview, so much!!!
I’m glad i’m not the only one that says stupid things without thinking like 90 mins being less than an hour and 15 mins 😆
I remember him from a game show called remote control on MTV , I think back in the 80's.....anyone remember that?
Adam Sandler was on the show as well
@@sheriracine3206 He was? I don't remember that. But it does seem like a show he would be on.
He wasn't on all the time. Think he got on there because of Colin or something. It's too bad we can't get a full reunion as Ken Ober died 10 years ago...that would have been an awesome Fallon skit.
I saw it live!
@@sheriracine3206 Oh. And I didn't know Ken passed. Wow, how old was he? And what did he pass from?
Bring back Tough Crowd!!!!!
That is the best impression of someone I hardly have recollection of
they need a snl week maybe 2x a year where jimmys old friends come on the show
I'd love that. Jimmy was there during one of the SNL golden eras. Tina Fey? Amy Poehler? Will Ferrell? Rachel Dratch? Seth Meyers? That would be great!
@@NewhamMatt yea. Ya forgot Horatio Sanz he def needs to show upChristmas time and do the christmas time is near skit lol
I am so confused right now
this was the best laugh ever. I fell off my chair
That was hilarious.
Freedom of speech is an acoustic art. It should never have gone electric!
One of these guys is hilarious and the other is Jimmy Fallon
Ahhh, assuming the audience would just know what the Cultural Revolution was. Bless
What does it mean if you said broccoli? Am I gonna die?
Not alot of views yet because people don't know what real comedy is anymore.
If anyone is looking for the circlejerk, its here.
Colin Quinn is very underestimated.
Johnny Carson used to smoke onscreen! One of the most famous unscripted moments in television was when Don Rickles broke his cigarette box!
This is enjoyable, in a good way.
Colin Quinn sounds like a late night drink you order when it's time to go.
This is the funniest thing ever
8:01 "Can you tell us what this play is about?
Oh, yeah. On a serious comic note... [Laughing] ..."
Was waiting for Bradly Cooper Can't Stop Laughing sequel... :D Almost there LOL
feed nana
John Coltrane lmao
CARROT THAT WAS A COOL TRICK
'It's the bomb of the century'. 'As a friend it's over'. #rickles #normmacdonald
Patents ask their kid to Colin Quinn before supper
You are pretty Funny jimmy
One step closer to getting Norton on here
Love Colin.
For as much as people say Jimmy is a phony brown noser, when a guy like Colin comes on Jimmy is more than willing to riff and make the interview fun
14:53
I SAID CARROT TOO. GREAT MINDS THINK A LOT
pause at 12:47 and it sums up everything
*That was a good trick*
Colin and Conan - two Irish boys putting the world to rights.
Damn that was awkward but fascinating. Lol
Colin is the best!!!!!!
This clip is fantastic. How he breaks Jimmy's whole charade down, fantastic & cringe to watch.
He's my hero..
Whenever sum1 says sup or hows things, imma just say 'A CARROT'
Lots of applause for the notion that free speech needs restraining. Great.
He has a little bit of an accent. I’ve never seen him. Where’s he from? He’s funny and intelligent.

"Robotic fool" lol
Colin reminds me of Dangerfield
You had a heart attach. Yea, thank you.....😂wtf?!!!
Ooooh!.. 😎😂💛
I’m I the only one that wants Colin to just tell Fallon, “Shut up, stupid.”?

Give us grown ups 3
Colin looks like a substitute teacher lol
can someone edit the crowd out of this
I'm just wondering how he did that carrot bit
So...Colin would host the show like Jim Jefferies?
I'd rather hear Colin Quinn on Jim and Sam.
that or Colin on chip chippason
I ve never gotten really into colin quinn (cause he is too smart and political for me) but he knows his basketball so i might have to give him another chance
wildcard comic puts mainstream schlub to unease
